2008 got off to a good start for those guyâ€™s down under but it has been very cold in Europe and the UK.
But how ever spring is now coming and the competition scene is about to start so watch this space.

Some new names on the list but will they still be there at the end of the year

Kites still have the top gps speeds with some insane peak speeds 57.3 knots from Sebastian
and Martin hitting a peak speed of 51.1 on a windsurfer outstanding performance and shows that it will be possible to record a full 50 knot run with a board and sail

Unfortunately we have lost some riders who made a good contribution to GPS maybe they will come back at sometime Finian - Tilmann

Nice to see my old mate Tony in there. Did you ever get that Bic to move .
Eight out of the ten places are held by the windsurfers at this time will there be significant changes by the end of the year .will there be changes in sail design or board design
Kite design is still in its infancy along with boards it will be an interesting year

Good look to all and remember GPS is for FUN

But it can be a good platform for those who wish to move into the competition scene like
Dave Williams from the UK who recorded his time in the UK.
O yes did I mention I made his boards
